What is the mechanism by which black holes evaporate?

(a)   Pairs of virtual particles are created just outside the event horizon.
(b)   Rotation of a Kerr black hole exerts a drag force on the matter around it, removing energy from the black hole.
(c)   There is NO mechanism whereby a black hole can evaporate since nothing can escape from a black hole, so they can NEVER evaporate.
